It's conclusive - Reusable Nappies are more environmentally friendly than disposable nappies. The Environment Agency updated their controversial report at the end of 2008.
Reusable nappies can reduce damaging emissions by up to 40%.

SEARCH ENTIRE BLOG - there is a search box at the top of this blog, which allows you to search on specific words, such as 'tots' or 'Clwt Twt'
SEARCH BY CATEGORY - - beneath each nappy description on the blog are the categories to which the nappy belongs. All types of nappies and related items now have a label with a description such as
'shaped nappy - requires wrap - sized'

I rate this nappy very highly, dare I say it, much higher than a few of those big brand names out there!
Why? - the fit. I have one with lastin, this, paired with the actual shaping and design, makes for a nappy that shapes very nicely over my son's bottom, no gapes or sags. With a nippa it is snug and wraps around him very well.
The absorbancy - I have an unbleached terry one - i find this very absorbant and reliable.
The drying time - it's "middle" folds out to dry which therefore speeds up the drying process considerably.
The design - very clever!
The size - I have a size 2. This is a lovely generous size, and truly could be worn by "larger" babies as it is fairly high in the rise if you know what I mean!
I am hoping to get a few more of these and wish I had found them sooner. And I imagine this will be a very popular nappy.
I agree with the above... I have a bamboo nappy and it's wonderful. It's really absorbent, I love to use it at night, and because of the clever design, it dries quickly. I'd recommend these to anyone.
I ADORE my quick flip - it's super absorbent, fits beautifully and dries fast. Plus, the bamboo fabric is snuggly and soft and following the redesign the rise is nice and high to fit my beanpole!
Top nappy, top value.
I adore this nappy! I think they are the best nappy I've tried for a good snug fit and good absorbancy. I've now got 2 terry and 2 bamboo!
Excellent design!
I have been using a quick flip for a couple of weeks now and quite like it. I do find it takes quite a while to dry where the elastic is. It takes longer than other nappies like tots rainbow nappies or Motherease Onesize.
It is a great night nappy though, but I don't think I will be using in the daytime because I think it is a bit too bulky, especially at the front, but great for nighttimes.
I have three of these and i love them, my only gripe is that the medium wrap seems to leave red marks on my daughter (20lbs at 7 months) thighs if im not super careful about how its done up...the red marks lasted for 3 days last time :(
Absorbancy wise though they are fantastic and boosted with one bamboo booster we go all night and its MUCH slimmer than the huge wonderoo stuffed to the high heavens that we were using previously!!
Think I might be in a minority but I was not keen on my bamboo one. I found it took a lot longer to dry than my other bamboo nappies (various brands) and I found it much bulkier and fiddlier to get a good fit. absorbancy was good though. Will be selling mine.
Have tried light and bamboo. The design is good but the sizing could be improved the size 2 is too small for my 15month beanpole. I queried this with little kiwi as I though they may have been made up wrong only to be told the nappies (both the light and bamboo) have probably shrunk in the wash! Overall not impressed with nappies or customer relations
These are just the best nappy I have ever used, and I'm on my 8th baby. They outstrip all other fitteds by a long mark with their easy washing and no need for boosting. If I could only have one sort it would be this one. And teamed with the new style wraps these are excellent. Big, roomy, comfortable, easy, what else could any baby need? Plus they are on offer on ebay at the moment.
customer service is second to none. I expected to be ignored but the people are so friendly.
10 out of 10 for little kiwi all ways round.
Have just started using washable nappies and bought this nappy on the advice of another nappy user.
I went for a coloured nappy instead of a white one, for a change, but wish I had stuck with white because the dye has run and now all my nappies and wraps are funny colour.
This is really my own fault, but I hoped it would be OK.
I like the design of the nappy, it does allow a faster drying time for bamboo, although the elastic bit takes quite a long time, so it is not as quick as my Motherease nappies.
It is easy to use and definitely a good choice for night time, but I find mine is too big for day time on my petite 12 month old girl.
such a simple idea. I too was recommended the little kiwi quick flip nappy and was pleased with the range of colors available- I chose a mini in red and a mini in blue and the lovely lady there agreed to make me a small size in red and white, which has been washed and the color has not run. I was impressed with the service, and with the delivery time and the reasonable postage is a bonus. 10 out of 10 on all counts.
i love my bamboo quick flips! my girls are very heavy wetters so i have tried many different big brands to try and get the right fit and absorbancy and had decided to go back to disposables until a friend recommended these. they fit brilliantly and i have never had a leak yet. i have now given away my other nappies and will be buying more of these. fabulous!
E&Cs mommy
I love my little kiwi quick flips too. They have solved all my cloth nappy problems. I needed quick drying nappies which don't need a tumble drier and these fit the bill exactly. Best of all the new wraps at the little kiwi nappy elite site are just beautiful and so darn reliable. I wouldn't recommend any other cloth nappy but these.
I thought the little kiwi babt quick flip nappies were good in the early days but the new ones are even better! 100% cotton and soft to boot. And more absorbent too. If you only buy one type of nappy make it these because they make great day AND night nappies,the wraps are perfect and dare I say the performance,cost and service outstrip every other nappy company I have ever tried.
Oooh oooh oooh you REALLY need some of these,not one some. They are the best nappy i have ever tried.They soak up so much wee i can easily leave my baby in hers overnight and not dread the wet bed i used to get from my other nappies. Definitely brilliant.A1
I was just looking at these nappies, googled and found the discussion here :)
They sound great, but can anyone tell me where they are actually made as I cannot find those details anywhere on their website? I was going to email them but does it say on the labels or the packaging?
The company is based in Wisbech in Norfolk.
Address is at the bottom of this page http://littlekiwi.co.uk/shop/faq.php
Incredibly simple fuss free nappies, ideal for my heavy wetter for day and night. If she falls to sleep before her bedtime I don't have to disturb her to change her as I trust these nappies implicitly. Combined with the nappyelite wrap they are the most reliable cloth nappy available to date, even beat my old favourite tots and huggles with motherease.
Don't waste time looking elsewhere, these suit all baby shapes and are superb.
squidgy squodgy baby fluffy cuteness all rolled into one nappy. I have cotton terry ones and they are dead easy to use and suit both my 10 month old and my 24 month old even though one is chunky and the other skinny, and this is ideal for me as I only need one set of nappies. Plus I use the same nappies day and night.
The wraps are brilliant. I own 4 from the littlekiwi ones which are ideal for general use and 10 from the nappyelite pages which are just the best wrap ever. No leaks and they are just so pretty. I like to have a choice of colour and fabric without the worry of them not performing. Again both my babies are sharing the same size (mediums) and they fit really well. I have tried a fair few wraps yet none seem to have ever been as good as these.
The customer service is fab too. I ordered the wrong size by mistake and emailed to ask for an exchange and it was sorted immediately. Highly recommend these nappies, and the wraps, above, dare I say, other more well known brands as they do really do exactly what they say on the tin.
10 out of 10 all round.

Brilliant. Was a little sceptical at first at the 14 hour claims BUT they really do last! Made it from Devon to Scotland overnight in the car too. Would recommend over any other cloth nappy and wrap set due to the total ease of use and reliableness. 10 out of 10.
Hooray, finally found somewhere to get more of these, even if I did have to get them from ebay. I wondered where they had been hiding having not seen them for a while! These really are the best nappies I have ever used. They are absorbent and dead easy to wash and dry, which is a godsend in this manky english summer weather. Highly recommend this nappy as it is unbeatable for reliability and value for money.
